Seigo ), that the problem is related to screensaver. if i disable screensaver entirely, the problem immediately disappears. onfortunately, aaron seems to be too busy for a debug-session. (still no further reply) i`m curious why the problem goes away if i either kill krunner or disable screensaver from control panel. the screensaver timeout is set to 5 minutes, so what makes my screen flicker every 4 seconds if krunner is running or screensaver is set to active. does krunner schedule the screensaver ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
